I want to learn to be independant. I’m tired of feeling sad if I can’t socialize as much as I want….or be with people when I want to. Why can’t I just be happy with just myself? I need to learn to stand on my own 2 feet and be happy with who I am. Otherwise I’ll just feel like this forever.

I’m in a dependance rut. Its even worse because I know I’m in it.

My definition of Independance and why I want it. 2 years ago

I’m 23 years old, currently commuting approximately 4 hours to and from work, dance classes, and whatever else I’ve got going on, on any given day. I live in Long Island. All the above mentioned activities take place in Manhattan and Brooklyn. One could say a girl like me is lucky to be living rent free with my family. But I would have to remind that person of the not so glamorous points, lack of privacy and a nagging sense of guilt when I attempt to make my own mistakes, being the two heaviest.

These two grossly fantastic peeves have led me to set my 27th birthday as the expiration date for this situation. That gives me a little over 3 years to get my money right and prepare for the MOMENT. Right now, I could actually be defiant, move out, find an a least semi-bearable roommate and work a bunch of jobs that make me tear my eyes from their sockets. But I know I won’t be happy. I imagine the scenario like so: I’ll be spending so much time hustling to pay rent and trying to prove mumsy wrong that I’ll stop dancing and lighting. Then the depression sets in. I’ll develop and drinking habit and gain 100lbs in a short time, putting excessive pressure on my already fragile heart. I will have died at 30 deeply unhappy and pennyless.

My plan, once I’ve raised the funds, is to buy a place in Brooklyn somewhere. A place I can call mine. I have faith that if I simply curb my excessive spending habit and keep my goal present, it is absolutely attainable.

On my own I’ll have the freedom to be as loud as I want, turn the heat up when I want, do it when I want (in my own bed!), invite people over, be alone, be private, be tidy, make a mess. Damn. Thats the life I tell you.
